Act V, Scene 2 Quotes — Hamlet

Now cracks a noble heart. Good night, sweet prince, / And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

If thou didst ever hold me in thy heart, / Absent thee from felicity awhile, / And in this harsh world draw thy breath in pain, / To tell my story.

The rest is silence.

Not a whit, we defy augury. There's a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, 'tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it be not now, yet it will come. The readiness is all.

There’s a divinity that shapes our ends, / Rough-hew them how we will.

Had I but time,—as this fell sergeant, death, / Is strict in his arrest,—O, I could tell you,— / But let it be.

Our indiscretion sometime serves us well, / When our deep plots do pall; and that should teach us / There’s a divinity that shapes our ends, / Rough-hew them how we will.

Here, thou incestuous, murderous, damned Dane, / Drink off this potion. Is thy union here? / Follow my mother.

’Tis dangerous when the baser nature comes / Between the pass and fell incensed points / Of mighty opposites.
